Same Boat Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Gotta be, wanna be
Gotta be, wanna be
Gotta be, wanna be
Wanna be, wanna

Please don't think less of me, mama
I'm chasin' destiny, mama
Don't know who blessing me, mama
Just gotta be grateful
Can't bring no stress to you mama
Just want the best for you, mama
Try keep my head above water
Just gotta be careful

I tell karma take a seat, I'm on my way (I'm on my way)
Just tryna make money, like a nigga made mistakes (made mistakes)
I used to pray for what I wanted every day
Now me and God conversation ain't the same (ain't the same)
Still I gotta be grateful, just gotta be grateful
I take all that pressure and put diamonds in my halo (my head though)
(I know that they watchin' me, still gotta be careful)
They say love and they say hate, go in the same boat

All these chains around my neck, just keep my chest heavy
Can't miss my chance to shoot my shot 'cause we don't get many
My little man from 'round my way say he won't do what I do
Do as what I say, don't do what I did
'Cause I just did what I could
How many times I compromised all of my pride for respect
I just spent like thirty thousand, tryna cure my depression
I admit that I got lost, I think I needed directions
Funny how dyin', always teach us the most valuable lessons
What a world we livin' in, this life ain't promised my nigga
Had a day, but you collect and you an RIP nigga
Need no vest on me, mama
And you's investin' me, mama
All them nights that you were prayin', keep your faith in me, mama
(All that work inside the kitchen, that's your recipe, mama)
I just pray that they don't put me on the menu like mama
What do I do when the devil keep on testin' my honor?
Finish readin' the Bible and go to sleep with my choppa

Please don't think less of me, mama
I'm chasin' destiny, mama
Don't know who blessing me, mama
Just gotta be grateful
Can't bring no stress to you mama
Just want the best for you, mama
Try keep my head above water
Just gotta be careful

I tell karma take a seat, I'm on my way (I'm on my way)
Just tryna make money, like a nigga made mistakes (made mistakes)
I used to pray for what I wanted every day
Now me and God conversation ain't the same (ain't the same)
Still I gotta be grateful, just gotta be grateful
I take all that pressure and put diamonds in my halo
I know that they watchin' me, still gotta be careful
'Cause I know love and I know hate go in the same boat

I just stay afloat
Since I was a child, I been graceful
Even when my fire was someone's case load
'Round 2-85 like miracle
Angel lit my fire when it was so cold (so cold)
Treadin' water since I been my momma's daughter (momma's daughter)
I'm a seed, gotta feed the ones I fonder
Keep it sweet, keep it peace but they know I'm a problem (they know)
Can't believe it, it's my season and I'm grievin' my partner (RIP)
Uh, I got me
You know I'ma have it up my sleeve (up my sleeve)
Mama, you the one I love supreme
You was gassin' me just like I was supreme, ha
I'ma keep my eyes wide, all night
There's the Devil's foot soldiers walkin' my way
Watch, watch, I'ma shut 'em back from where they came
I ain't ask for my pride, for my cent, Rick James

Please don't think less of me, mama
I'm chasin' destiny, mama
Don't know who blessing me, mama
Just gotta be grateful
Can't bring no stress to you mama
Just want the best for you, mama
Try keep my head above water
Just gotta be careful

I tell karma take a seat, I'm on my way (I'm on my way)
Just tryna make money, like a nigga made mistakes (made mistakes)
I used to pray for what I wanted every day
Now me and God conversation ain't the same (ain't the same)
Still I gotta be grateful, just gotta be grateful
I take all that pressure and put diamonds in my halo
I know that they watchin' me, still gotta be careful
'Cause I know love and I know hate go in the same boat
